I'm voting on the 'Jealousy Contest' and as always I'm reading all the entries.

The only flaw I see in your writing is the use of a 'clarity' format when describing one of the most unclear emotions in existence :o)

A wonderful piece of poetry, offering a peak inside the jealous heart. Smooth flow and easy to understand wording makes it that much more powerful. Well done! I wish you the best in the contest.

"Jealousy in romance is like salt in food. A little can enhance the savor, but too much can spoil the pleasure and, under certain circumstances, can be life-threatening." ~ Dr. Maya Angelou (the essence of a powerful woman)

Well done!

Loved the abstract art....it worked.


Loved thse lines:envy erodes and
corrodes cardinal needs
by seizing and choking truth

And the ending was great:wanton while remaining empty"

YOu have inspired me. Am doing a series of "morality"
Think "jealousy" will be my next subject. Once was engaged to a very jealous man..so, I know that particular evil very well.

Sue, the form fits the contest challenge nicely, defining succinctly the word jealousy. Your 'corrodes cardinal' alliteration was smooth, and I loved your final line best. Remaining empty indeed! Good one. :)

wanton while remaining empty - that pretty much sums up jealousy and the destructive force it has on the soul of the person feeling it - it's the main reason I finally divorced my husband after years of his cheating - because I hated the person it was turning me into. Because even when one's suspicions are absolutely right, it still chokes. Well done, Brooke

This is skilful, profound and very poetic, Sue. I reckon we all suffer from these so-called 'deadly sins'. I think jealousy is one, but I'm not sure. If it is, I've got a one-way ticket downwards, cos I'm jealous of most people all of the time. I'm sure I'm equally guilty of the other thoughts, though I don't recall murdering anyone (if that's a sin), though I have a bad memory. LOL.
I'm VERY 'jealous' of your superb poem. ;-) Love, Ray xx
